Chosen By The Moon (Dylan) novel Chapter 5

Dylan POV.

“Ouch, not so hard.” I seethed as the school nurse cleaned my new wound with antiseptic.

“If you had of just kept your mouth shut, this wouldn’t have happened.” I turned to my right looking out the window at the few clouds that were floating in the blue sky.

“Like I said, I’m proud to be human, and now everyone knows what I am.” I clenched my fist together as the nurse began wrapping a bandage around my forearm.

It had been a good few hours since the incident in the hall, and I had been forced to come to the nurces office after I had tried to clean my wound by splashing it with water from the tap, it also refused to stop bleeding.

“You are impossible. Can you please just try and stay out of trouble? For one day, that’s all I ask.” Our school nurse is a wolf, she’s one of them. However she hates the way they treat us mere humans, she thinks we should all just live in peace with equal rights. Like that would ever happen.

“All I’ve done is stay out of trouble, but you are just going to humiliate me anyway, so what’s the actual point?”

“The pack were discussing a public execution, Dylan. You need to walk on egg shells from now on, not just for you but for your family as well.” No ones been publicly executed in over 4 months, I’m flattered they’re considering it. They only execute people who they believe are the biggest problems to society.

“Well then… I’m flattered.” I chuckled, before looking at the patch job. ‘Huh, not too shabby.’ I quickly stood up from the human nursing station and pulled the sleeve of my shirt down covering the evidence of ever being hurt.

“This is serious!” I just gave her a blank look before leaving the room. On the way out I heard her call back to me. “Please just think about it.” I gave a clipped nod as I walked away wondering how I’m going to tell my mom about this.

Later in the evening…

“Dilly why you say that?” Freddie looked up at me with a mouth full of bread.

“Don’t speak with your mouthful!” My mom scolded him as a bashful blush made its way to his cheeks.

“Sowwy mommy.” His reply was muffled as he swallowed the last chunk of food.

“I said it Freddie, because it’s the truth. The wolf race are a fucking pathetic excuse for…” my mom cut me off with an extremely stern look.
